April 2016 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix&Discussion Thread

Good lineup Mark.

 

Nice display!!!

 

You've been added to the list of the select!

 

Well that's Clint for you!

Also, how would you describe the scent of Amici, Kerry?

 

Well I don't exactly know what I'm volunteering for, but I've got a good hunch that it involves razor blades and your face! And in that case, I'm in!
(Off to buy a month's supply of popcorn...)

 

Only Putin is bad enough to fish for sharks by hand.

 

Blades and my face? I'm not THAT daring! Yeah, well it's just picking numbers when it's your turn. Still getting the layout where I want it. Basically a list of blades (some are doozies) and razors (again some are not the best). I'm considering throwing a soap option in as well including a couple of questionable choices. OH, and a wildcard choice that would force me to randomize a list of the most entertaining possibilities. After all it's MAYhem we're talking about....we need lots of randomness and potential disaster versus glorious shaves.

 

Oh why am I not surprised?!!

 

I know. It's TOTALLY against my nature. Why do the laughing guys keep showing up here!??!

 

It's symbiotic brother, we need each other!

 

On that we can totally agree.

 

Tuesday Shower/Shave

Shower- Noxzema facial cleaner, Dr. Bronner's All-One Hemp Peppermint bar soap
Pso- Homemade grapefruit PSO
Brush- RazoRock Plissoft
Razor- Muhle R41 head on a Maggard MR5 handle
Blade- Gillette Silver Blue (1)
Soap- Catie's Bubbles Mile High Menthol with extra M-Bomb
Thayers Witch Hazel with grapefruit EO
AS- Aqua Velva

Another wonderful shave tonight, 3 passes and I'm BBS. It's like the R41 and the GSB were made for each other, great combo. I really like this soap and now I'm officially addicted to menthol. My new spray bottles worked great, I really like Aqua Velva and Thayers and grapefruit EO are excellent together. Have a great day folks!

 

Gold Dollar 208
Razorock 24mm Finest Badger
Razorock SMDF Soap/Croap/Cream- This damn soap is so bipolar it hasn't made up its mind what class it is in.
Maggard Alum Block
Fine American Blend


Had a late night shave tonight after the kids went to bed. I am starting to realize that I cant do my normal method of loading with the soap as it is such a strange consistency that if I do my normal "Load it like you hate it" loading I pick up way to much product and its like putting glue on my face. I found this out the hard way when I started to build a face lather and the lather was bone dry... added about 300 gallons of water and finally got it where I wanted it. 3 passes (WTG,XTG, ATG) and I am BBS.

On my 2nd pass I lost concentration for a second and cut into my Goatee so bad that I had to get rid of everything. It was heart breaking....at least to me as I now look like an overgrown tattooed 10 year old...

 

Not......not.......the Heisenberg?!?!?! The horror.....the horror!.........

 

I use CB Mile High. But with M-Bomb?

Sir you are beyond addicted.

Remember, it's a 'gateway' thing. Careful or you're on your way to @crackstar status!

 

Well until you get that goatee back on its face I'll do the best I can to fill in as the resident Heisenberg.

 

Now that's a smooth shaved dude!

 

Nailed it!

 

That's a 14 hour old Voskhod shave is what that is.
